Hi,
I don't think there is anything Duxbury can do that BM can't but you do have
a lot more control of the finished product. Duxbury is very capable of
making complex rules. So if a standard changes, and you haven't yet got the
latest Dux, it's easy to update things like Braille rules.
All the best
Steve

So is Duxbury worth the cost?
Can it do anything the cheaper Braille
Programs cannot do?

Duxbury is extreamly expensive even to upgrade. I had something once called
Braille Master and I loved it but I don't think it went even to Windows
2000. It cost a hundred pound at the time.

Hi Eleanor and Niamh
Off the top of my head, Braille Maker comes in two flavours, Standard and
Professional. Standard used to be £195, and Professional £395, but that may
have changed. Last I knew, Duxbury was £430.
They are both good programs. I just prefer Braille Maker for its more
simplistic and straightforward layout. It isn't that I don't like Duxbury,
I just prefer Braille Maker. Support for both is very good indeed wherever
you obtain it. But Brian Cairney knows the Braille Maker program very well,
as does George with Duxbury. Both programs also support the Index
embossers.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Hi Alex
Cragside Accessibility, in my view, offers superb support for Braille Maker,
and the program itself is brill!
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns
